ABC News - 41 minutes ago
By SARAH NETTER and STEPHEN SPLANE The fire doubled in size Thursday and has now consumed more than 2700 acres. At least 11 firefighters have been injured.
God of the cosmos, we recognize afresh that we are but part of the vast web of creation. Have mercy on those in danger, relieve those consumed with anxiety, guide those seeking to preserve lives, sustain those battling fires, and help us to live in harmony with the world that is our home. Amen.
UPDATE - From the comments, Boocat expands our awareness and intercessions:
Pray for the Red Cross and its Disaster Action Teams. These are the volunteers who open and operate shelters, operate feeding routes with ERVs, and work relentlessly around the clock during such disasters. Make a donation if you can. The Red Cross Disaster Funds, both Nationally and locally are currently stretched to the limit.
